WCIU-DT 26.2/48.1HD

I sure appreciate it very much.

this is what weigel broadcasting said on their website

We want to have The U Too on both satellite services as much as you do! We have asked both Dish Network and DIRECTV to carry The U Too, and have offered it to them at no charge. Perhaps hearing from you, their customers will make a difference.
Please click on the appropriate link below to contact your satellite provider and request "carriage of station WMEU (the station call letters) from Chicago" in your message. Thank you

Thanks

Why not just use an antenna? Much clearer picture

You have to realize the spotbeam is probably full

 

[bluegras]

is the spotbeam really full do they have room for more locals or HD channels.just wondering

 

[Claude Greiner]

Can't they request must carry status and all they would need to do is provide a signal to both directv and dish

 

[bluegras]

how do we see this being happening I would like this channel added to our lineup.

It's a low-powered digital station, so it does NOT qualify for MC...although I realize bluegras doesn't give a sh*t about those little "details"...you know, like if a station/channel actually IS broadcast in HD, etc.

Honestly his posts serve NO purpose whatsoever, other than to be annoying...but I guess we should be thankful it's about the ONLY things he posts about (make E* add channel xx in HD)

 

[bluegras]

well I am just passionate at getting this channel added to our lineup in hd at least I don't ask for every channel to be in hd in which I think should happen in the future.

Yeah, you do!

Is that a threat?? ::

 

[bluegras]

no its not a threat?i wish we had all of our locals in hd that is all.

 

[dishrich]

Yeah, you do!

SO true...and as pointed out, ones that are NOT even broadcasting in HD themselves!

now we need WJYS channel 62 to go hd this we be the last station to go hd out of chicago since we got our ion in hd today

It won't be happening any time soon, as WJYS doesn't broadcast in HD... (3 channels of SD)

Seriously blue, you know they DO make drugs for your "issues"...

 

[bluegras]

[Juan]

USE AN ANTENNA......that solves the problem
I've been wanting Directv to add the one remaining station here in Minneapolis (KSTC45) in HD for 3 years...not because of the crappy reruns it shows. But because it has the high school tourney finals. I ended up using an antenna and it works GREAT!

 

[bluegras]

problem is I live about 100 miles southwest of Chicago and I will not be able to pick up WMEU channel 48 in hd.i would like to have this channel and I will be happy.

 

[bluegras]

here is the website for the U TOO channel 48 from chicago

[Mr Tony]

and what good will that do? again its LOW POWERED and therefore does NOT NOT NOT qualify for must carry

They can ask and if the provider says NO then they're screwed..I'm sure they have asked

 

[Mr Tony]

at least I don't ask for every channel to be in hd

no you just ask for mythical HD stations (ones that arent even in HD) to be carried

 

[Juan]

I suggest we all chip in and get him a "roku" with a years subscription to Areo

 

[bluegras]

thank you for the suggestion i have never heard of aereo before?maybe one of these days we could see this channel if they become full power tv station.
